Hah. I represent that comment so please retract at once, sir!
Put in a kitchen ceiling light a few weeks ago but the paint needed touch up. Half empty old 5gal bucket of Glidden ceiling white using a drill and long mixer cage to pulverize it first. A 2ft extension handle screwed on and worked from floor. Roll it gently across the surface of the bucket paint and shake it out inside. The drips happen when the roller gets fill up inside and at the edges. Roll edges a bit harder first inside the line and go over it again.
Didn't even use a drop cloth but covered the stove with cardboard. Only a few small drips. YeahI live dangerously.


Turning a crescent 'the right way' forces the adjustable jaw into the frame. Brown arrows.
(I mostly use them for holding a valve still or larger nuts which can't be chewed up)
